Question
The Greenville city soccer league has 1,230 players. Spruceburgh's league has 3 times as many players as the Greenville league. Write and solve an equation to find n, the number of players, in Sruceburgh's league.
1,230 x n = 6,230, so n = 4,000
1,230 + n = 3,660, so n = 2,430
1,230 x 3 = n, so n, = 3,690
( 1,230 x 3 ) x n = 33,690, so n = 1,000
1,230 x n = 6,230, so n = 4,000
1,230 + n = 3,660, so n = 2,430
1,230 x 3 = n, so n, = 3,690
( 1,230 x 3 ) x n = 33,690, so n = 1,000

To find the number of players \( n \) in Spruceburgh's league, we can use the information given that Spruceburgh's league has 3 times as many players as the Greenville league.
Given:
- Number of players in Greenville league = 1,230
- Number of players in Spruceburgh league = 3 times the number of players in Greenville league
This gives us the equation:
\[ n = 3 \times 1,230 \]
Now, let's calculate \( n \):
\[ n = 3 \times 1,230 = 3,690 \]
So, the equation and solution for the number of players in Spruceburgh's league is:
\[ n = 3,690 \]
